Maggie's Day 320 of Discovering Love in Not Seeking out Eight Maids a Milking on the Eighth Day of Christmas

The wind blew into town today with such furry that I rushed downtown at just minutes past nine to check on my current installation art piece. All was surprisingly well so I scurried home for a peaceful beginning to this fabulous New Year.

I rang in the day with a nice little Italian brunch that made this whole year worth living. When Italians cook, eating is good. Life is good.

On this Eighth Day of Christmas I was originally in search of Eight Maids o Milking but abandoned the idea the minute I thought I had a surefire way to discover love today.

Whether it was ‘surfire’ or not I may never know. In the meantime I discovered love in a beautiful brunch on a sunny morning in the tastiest sandwich that has ever been created my man.

So, there was no need for maids, or cows or milking or anything else for that fact. Today I discovered love was going to come in it’s own time with it’s own plan. All I had to do was show up and participate.



So, I am showing up and I am participating and I’m discovering love this year because the year started off with me dancing into the wee hours of the morning, then a few hours later dining on a divine Italian feast followed up by my completion of three portraits that actually blew me away and culminated in corned beef and cabbage with black-eyed peas, carrots and potatoes for dinner with a penny in my shoe.

There is so much more I could write but it’s two o’clock in the morning and I have to be up in less than seven hours. So that makes five hours of sleep for a giddy girl who absolutely loves this life. Sweet Dreams to you and all those who walk in your life! Maggie ã
